One Case For Chaos

The roads are clean and straight; Lawns with no weeds. The wild is locked and fenced; The trash is in your pocket. People park within lines; Never mind arbitrary confines. The crazy man in the hermitage Still dwells there in another age. In this need for order and work, There's its own madness; Of evens, odds, and edges, A life is measured in wages.

This is an excellent comparative analysis of life. I like the essence of the piece and how it reflects on life in its own dimension. This shows how diverse we are in our lives and expressions. Great job! Joseph
